About this map

Deerhorn Creek meanders through the heart of this agricultural landscape in Wilkin County, revealing a territory defined by its complex drainage network and wildlife conservation efforts. The area is heavily managed by a series of engineered waterways, including Judicial Ditch No 14 and Judicial Ditch No 3-1, which segment the townships of Atherton, Prairie View, Manston, and Tanberg. Large tracts of land are preserved as the Atherton State Wildlife Management Area and the Rothsay State Wildlife Management Area, highlighting the region's commitment to natural habitat amidst surrounding farmland. The Burlington Northern railroad corridor cuts across the northeastern section, serving as a primary transportation artery near local landmarks like the Townhall and the South Branch Buffalo River. This 1981 survey documents the established section lines and property divisions that continue to shape rural Minnesota.
